I got two from caker, no stamp, redish- orange plastic. I mostly have thrown it in open areas, but the first time i hit a tree with it it chipped or goughed like old dx wear you have to melt the chip back. Did I get crappy plastic, or at least not top of the line because I have alot of star plastic and have never seen chip chip like this. I do like the disc and the way it feels when you release it(and I get good d with less effort) is there a better plastic?

the only thing that I can say is that the people mixing the plastic up in Chicago don't realy have a clue. They have some good molds, but the mix is Questionable. If, and I do mean "if" David Mac. makes his own mold of this disc(Gateways name is the first in Gateway-Quest)the plastic will be awesome. Until then the plastic will be ????able.

What was the temp. when you were playing?

How far away was the tree?

did you throw the white one?w/dimple tech.

Frog, I appolagize for the chipping but sh!t happens. You know that. Give me a call when you get this direction. Caker.

I was down at gateway for my drive home over Christmas, and Dave let me throw some of the RI's and RI DT's that he had down there. Quest has some serious issues with inconsistent plastic. I threw one RI DT that was like H plastic and overstable, one that hzyerflipped and was money (soft similar to the new blurrs), and a RI that was orange and kinda flippy. One thing is for sure though; those wings make the disc fly far! As soon as they perfect the plastic, chances are the RI DT will make it's way into my bag. It was pretty much everything I look for in a max D driver.

don't be sorry fo anything. The discs are sweet. I'm just hard on plastic. It was 40ish, 240 ft. away going fast. not the dt. On another note Ive started using it more and think it's the shit. and what type of plastic did u use on the matzen lake ones, I love the grip, and can I get a 168 to 172 one?

and what type of plastic did u use on the matzen lake ones,It is a 70/30 blend. 70% hytrel plastic and 30% eurithane plastic. they were designed to be understable. Hyser flip-up shots or long turn-overshots.
